“I believe it is fair. It will allow a broad-ranging debate on campaign finance reform. The rule makes in order four major alternatives, one of which is the substitute that I have offered, along with the gentleman from Kansas (Mr. Moran), the gentleman from Missouri (Mr. Hulshof), the gentleman from Montana (Mr. Hill), and the gentleman from Texas (Mr. Brady). It is the Campaign Integrity Act which does three things that I think are very important. One, it bans soft money to the national parties which is the most significant problem that we have on our scene. Second, it empowers individuals in our system by increasing the information that is available to them through more disclosure. Third, it raises the individual contribution limits to prevent the value of the small contributor from being eroded through rising inflation. Ours is the only substitute that does that.”
